The prevention of COVID-19
- Try to avoid people who are sick or meeting in large groups. Stay home if you are sick.
- Cover your cough with a tissue or cough into your upper sleeve or elbow. Do not cough into your hands.
- Avoid touching your mouth, nose, or eyes.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom, before eating, and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty.
